It appears that the errors are in the Windows Foundation Language Pack so I don't think they are anything to worry about. I get the feeling that the Windows Foundation Language Pack must have a problem on 64 bit systems as this is the second one I've seen that had these errors. There is one error that is not part of the Language Pack: slmgr.vbs This is something called Software License Manager. Don't think it's important for non-enterprise PCs. I don't have a 64 bit Win 7 but I know a couple of people who do and I will ask them if their sfc has the same problems. I'll get back to you on that. My 32 bit win 7 goes through sfc without an error.

Can you run the Event Viewer Tool and post the logs. Let's see if anything is broken.

Right click on the time in the bottom right and Adjust Date/Time. Click on Change Time Zone. Verify that you have the correct time Zone and that if Daylight Savings Time is used where you are that the box for it is checked. OK. Click on Change Date and Time. Make sure the date and year are correct then adjust the time to the current time. Click on Internet Time. Does it say it successfully synced? If not you can try the Change Settings button and Update Now but it's not working on mine right now. What does seem to work is to stop and restart the time service. In the Search box type services.msc and when it finds it, right click on the found services.msc and Run AS Admin. OK. Find Windows Time and right click on it and select Properties. Stop the Service. After it stops, START the service. Now go back into Adjust Date/Time, Internet Time and it should have Synced. Did it?

This is not a service that you need so let's turn it off:

In the Search box type services.msc and when it finds it, right click on the found services.msc and Run AS Admin. OK. Find Intel® PROSet/Wireless Event Log and right click on it and select Properties. Change the Startup Type: to Disabled and then OK.

Also not needed. Don't even know what it does. Sounds like adware. I would turn it off the same way as the previous service.

Now let's clear the alarms and see if we have fixed those 3 errors:

Right click on (My) Computer and select Manage (Continue) Then click on the arrow in front of Event Viewer. Next Click on the arrow in front of Windows Logs Right click on System and Clear Log, Clear. Repeat for Application.

Reboot.

2. Right-click VEW.exe and Run AS Administrator3. Under 'Select log to query', select:

Then use the 'Number of events' as follows:

1. Click the radio button for 'Number of events'Type 20 in the 1 to 20 boxThen click the Run button.Notepad will open with the output log.

Please post the Output log in your next reply then repeat but select Application.

Ok, my internet time was wrong--it was set to US/Canada and I am in Korea. So I successfully synced it to Korean time. Check.

Next, I disabled the startup to disabled in the Intel® PROSet/Wireless Event Log. Check.

Now, for the third step, I can not get into "Manage" in "my Computer." When I click "Manage" I get an error (This file does have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install a program, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs Control panel."

So I am stuck there. Any way around this?

Thanks Ron, you are awesome for stepping me through all of this. All of your instructions are precise and easy to follow. You should be a teacher!

I think this is something that is useful in an Enterprise environment but not needed on a home PC so I would go in to services and turn it off too. If it turns out you need it then I think you need to download the latest version of Intel® PROSet, uninstall the old and reinstall the new.

Otherwise it looks good. How is it running now?

Hey Ron,I disabled the Intel® PROSet/Wireless Registry Service and ran the VEW.exe again and this is what came up:

No threat that I see. Looks like ProSet is not going to be happy unless you reinstall it and I don't have a 64-bit system so I can't get the files for you that SFC is complaining about but if it is working OK then we can stop.

OTL has a cleanup tab but DO NOT USE IT!. There are reports that it leaves the PC unbootable. Instead just delete OTL.exe and the folder c:\_OTL.

To hide hidden files again:

Vista or Win7

# Open the Control Panel menu and click Folder Options.# After the new window appears select the View tab.# Remove the check in the checkbox labeled Display the contents of system folders.# Under the Hidden files and folders section select the radio button labeled Do not Show hidden files and folders.# Check the checkbox labeled Hide protected operating system files.# Press the Apply button and then the OK button and exit My Computer.

Also make sure you have the latest versions of any adobe.com products you use like Shockwave, Flash or Acrobat.

Whether you use adobe reader, acrobat or fox-it to read pdf files you need to disable Javascript in the program. There is an exploit out there now that can use it to get on your PC. For Adobe Reader: Start, All Programs, Adobe Reader, Edit, Preferences, Click on Javascript in the left column and uncheck Enable Acrobat Javascript. OK Close program. It's the same for Foxit reader except you uncheck Enable Javascript Actions.

To help keep your programs up-to-date you should download and run the UpdateChecker: http://www.filehippo.../updatechecker/(You don't need to download Betas and if there is a program you don't use you can just uninstall it rather than update it. Exception is MSN messenger which appears to be part of Windows.)If you get a blocked program notice after installing updatechecker then change it to not run at start then manually run it once a week. Seems to work best if Firefox is the default browser. You can also try Secunia PSI http://secunia.com/v...l/download_psi/ Same kind of info. You don't need both.If you use Firefox then get the AdBlock Plus Add-on. WOT (Web of Trust) is another you might want to try.The equivalent to AdBlock Plus for IE is called Simple Adblock and you should install it too: http://simple-adblock.com/The free version only blocks 200 ads a day so another reason to use Firefox or Chrome.

If Firefox is slow loading make sure it only has the current Java add-on. Then download and run Speedy Fox.http://www.crystalidea.com/speedyfox . You can run it any time that Firefox seems slow.

Be warned: If you use Limewire, utorrent or any of the other P2P programs you will almost certain be coming back to the Malware Removal forum. If you must use P2P then submit any files you get to http://virustotal.com before you open them.

If you have a router, log on to it today and change the default password! If using a Wireless router you really should be using encryption on the link. Use the strongest (newest) encryption method that your router and PC wireless adapter support especially if you own a business. See http://www.king5.com...-120637284.html and http://www.seattlepi...ted-1344185.php for why encryption is important. If you don't know how, visit the router maker's website. They all have detailed step by step instructions or a wizard you can download.

Special note on Java. Old Java versions should be removed after first clearing the Java Cache by following the instructions in:http://www.java.com/...lugin_cache.xmlThen remove the old versions by going to Control Panel, Programs and Features and Uninstall all Java programs which are not Java Version 7 update 9 or better. These may call themselves: Java Runtime, Runtime Environment, Runtime, JRE, Java Virtual Machine, Virtual Machine, Java VM, JVM, VM, J2RE, J2SE. Get the latest version from Java.com. They will usually attempt to foist some garbage like the Ask toolbar, Yahoo toolbar or McAfee Security Scan on you as part of the download. Just uncheck the garbage before the download (or install) starts. If you use a 64-bit browser and want the 64-bit version of Java you need to use it to visit java.com.Due to multiple security problems with Java we are now recommending that it not be installed unless you absolutely know you need it. IF that is the case then go to Control Panel, Java, Security and slide it up to the highest level. OK.

Make sure Windows Updates is turned and that it works. Go to Control panel, Windows Updates and see if it works.
